Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate

corresponds to the local mains voltage before you

connect the appliance.

If the appliance is provided with an earthed plug, it

must be plugged into an earthed wall socket.

Do not use the appliance if the plug, the cord or

the appliance itself shows visible damage, or if the

appliance has been dropped or leaks.

the soleplate when it is hot.

When you have nished ironing, when you clean

the appliance, when you ll or empty the water

tank and also when you leave the iron even for a

short while: set the steam control to position 0,

Preparing for use

Filling the water tank

Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,

ironing aids or other chemicals in the water tank.

1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.

2 Set the steam control to position 0 (= no

steam) (Fig. 3).

3 Open the cap of the lling opening.

4 Tilt the iron backwards and ll the water tank with

tap water up to the maximum level with a lling

cup. (Fig. 4)

Do not ll the tank beyond the MAX indication.

5 Close the cap of the lling opening (‘click’).

Setting the temperature

1 Put the iron on its heel.

2 To set the required ironing temperature, turn the

temperature dial to the appropriate position (Fig. 5).

Check the laundry care label for the required ironing

temperature:

1 Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide,

polyester)

1 Silk

2 Wool

3 Cotton, linen

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article

is made of, determine the right ironing temperature by

ironing a part that will not be visible when you wear or

use the article.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side

of the fabric to prevent shiny patches. Avoid using the

spray function to prevent stains. Start ironing the articles

that require the lowest ironing temperature, such as those

made of synthetic bres.

3 Put the mains plug in a wall socket.

The amber temperature light goes on.

4 When the temperature light goes out, wait a while

before you start to iron (Fig. 6).

The temperature light goes on from time to time during

ironing.

Using the appliance

Note:The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for

the rst time. This stops after a short while.

Steam ironing

1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water

tank.

2 Select the recommended ironing temperature (see

chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Setting the

temperature’).

3 Select the appropriate steam setting. Make sure

that the steam setting you select is suitable for the

ironing temperature selected: (Fig. 7)

1 - 2 for moderate steam (temperature settings 2

to 3)

3 - 4 for maximum steam (temperature settings

3 to MAX)

Note:The iron starts to steam as soon as it has reached the

set temperature.

Note:If the selected ironing temperature is too low (MIN

to 2), water may drip from the soleplate (see chapter

‘Features’, section ‘Drip stop’).

Ironing without steam

1 Set the steam control to position 0 (= no

steam) (Fig. 3).

2 Select the recommended ironing temperature (see

chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Setting the

temperature’).

Features

Spray function

You can use the spray function to remove stubborn

creases at any temperature.

1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water

tank.

2 Press the spray button several times to moisten the

article to be ironed (Fig. 8).

Steam boost

A powerful shot of steam helps to remove stubborn

creases.

The steam boost function can only be used at

temperature settings between 2 and MAX.

1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 9).

Concentrated steam boost from the special

Steam Tip (GC3360/3340 only)

The concentrated steam boost from the long vents in

the Steam Tip enhances the distribution of steam into

every part of your garment. The concentrated steam

boost function can only be used at temperature settings

between 2 and MAX.

1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 10).

Vertical steam boost

Never direct the steam at people.

The steam boost function can also be used when

you hold the iron in vertical position. This is useful for

removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.

1 Hold the iron in vertical position and press and

release the steam boost button (Fig. 11).

Drip stop (GC3360/3340/3332/3331/3330

only)

This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the

iron automatically stops producing steam when the

temperature is too low to prevent water from dripping

out of the soleplate. When this happens you may hear a

sound.

Electronic safety shut-off function (GC3360

only)

If the iron has not been moved for a while, the electronic

safety shut-off function automatically switches off the iron.

The red auto-off light starts to ash to indicate that

the iron has been switched off by the safety shut-off

function (Fig. 6).

To let the iron heat up again, pick it up or move it slightly.

The red auto-off light goes out.

If the temperature light goes on, wait until it goes out

before you start to iron.

If the temperature light does not go on, the iron is

ready for use.

Cleaning and maintenance

Double-Active Calc System

(GC3360/3340/3332/3331/3330/3321 only)

The Double-Active Calc System consists of an Antic-Calc

tablet combined with the Calc-Clean function.

The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging

the steam vents. The tablet is constantly active and

does not require replacement (Fig. 12).

The Calc-Clean function removes the scale

particles from the iron.

Calc-Clean function

Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If

the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when akes come

out of the soleplate during ironing), use the Calc-Clean

function more frequently.

1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.

2 Set the steam control to position 0.

3 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.

Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the

water tank.

4 Set the temperature dial to MAX.

5 Put the plug in the wall socket.

6 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes

out.

7 Hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the

Calc-Clean button and gently shake the iron to and

fro (Fig. 13).

Steam and boiling water come out of the soleplate.

Impurities and akes (if any) are ushed out.

8 Release the Calc-Clean button as soon as all the

water in the tank has been used up.

9 Repeat the Calc-Clean process if the iron still

contains a lot of impurities.

After the Calc-Clean process

1 Put the plug in the wall socket and let the iron heat

up to allow the soleplate to dry.

2 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes

out.

3 Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to

remove any water stains that may have formed on

the soleplate.

4 Let the iron cool down before you store it.
